PROSPECTS AND OPPORTUNITIES
Rising demand forecast for cough, cold and allergy remedies
Value sales of cough, cold and allergy remedies are set to rise during the forecast period, supported by persistent environmental factors such as dust, allergens and widespread use of air conditioning, alongside seasonal disease spikes during Hajj and Umrah. Rising health awareness and a growing self-care mindset will further fuel demand, while regulatory reforms will continue to enhance pharmacy access and broadened product availability.
Digital and technological advancements drive development
In Saudi Arabia, digital and technological advancements are transforming the cough, cold, and allergy (hay fever) remedies market into a seamless, consumer-focused ecosystem. The government’s Wasfaty platform streamlines e-prescriptions and insurance, while major chains like Nahdi, Al-Dawaa, and United Pharmacy fuel e-pharmacy adoption through real-time inventory, express delivery and loyalty apps.
Impact of tourism and economic diversification on healthcare needs
Post-pandemic, the rising number of tourists to Saudi Arabia is also set to support further demand in this category. The Pilgrim Experience Program’s (PEP) targets the hosting of 15 million international Umrah pilgrims annually in 2025 and 30 million Umrah pilgrims by 2030.
